Nice album ewemon. I still buy her albums more out of habit than anything. Back in this era she was really on a roll.
Nice listening while watching the snow fall outside.
Paul McCartney. Wingspan. Hits & History. 2 CD set from 2001. Is it Paul McCartney or is it Wings? It's both, I guess, covering the period from 1970 to 1984. Disc 1 'Hits" contains McCartney's most popular songs from the period. Disc 2 'History' has songs that received less radio airplay, but are no less stellar in my view. Presented in a nice hardbound book style case with a holographic cover sleeve. Overall SQ is good, but the vinyl versions I'm more familiar with sound better to me. As compilations go, it is a very impressive collection of songs from (essentially) a single artist.
In the Wake of Poseidon is the second studio album by the progressive rock group King Crimson

Gould's Beethoven Piano Concerto No.1 still remains as one of my favouite. So lively, fun and fresh. Love his own jazzy wacky cadenza~ I would have loved to hear this live. Today who'd have balls to play his/her own cadenza?
Golschmann's orchestration also is right on the money. Probably the best fitting partner for Gould.
Music Matters' new 33rpm stereo Reissue.
ok. This does sound better than my Classic mono reissue or OJC stereo reissue.
Oh dear. Looks like I have to repurchase Somethin' Else and Moanin'. :/

Funnily enough got a new interconnect today and I have been listening to this album tonight and hearing things I have never heard. All the little nuances are there and the back to front depth is huge. Think I need to alter my speaker positioning a little.
Since i moved the stereo from the previous "wooden" room to the real one here my SBLs started sounding right, So right that listening to J. Cash acoustic records i thought that something was breaking. Shivers!

I always find JJ's music so relaxing to listen to. It just soothes the day.

So enjoying JJ that I just had to have another one.
Naturally from 1971
On Spotify, it would seem that I've missed this album, in fact i don't remember seeing it before:-
On vinyl. For reasons I don't fully comprehend he never really caught on on this side of the Atlantic. Apparently he has done quite well on the east side. One of my favorites. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
